Thank the kami for finally sending someone who I can turn to for help! Please, madam, I need you to do me a favor, but it is something that must stay between us.

The other day, I was out for a stroll in the Kobayashi Maru to the northeast of here when I came across a wakizashi. It was beautiful. When I went to grab it, however, this ghastly tentacled creature appeared from nowhere and chased me away!

Saikoro

I want that wakizashi so badly, but if I appeal to anyone here for assistance, they will laugh in my face again and call me a coward. Might you go there and obtain it for me?

Saikoro

Please, bring me the wakizashi I spotted in the Kobayashi Maru. It is to the northeast of here. Once I get it, maybe then everyone will stop teasing me!

System

You thoroughly search the area but are unable to find the wakizashi.

Saikoro

It was not there? Bah! That vile creature must have wrapped its slimy arms around it and taken it back to its home, then!

Saikoro

Please, you must track it down and seize my wakizashi from it. It is likely in Onokoro with all the other...<shudder>...sh-shiranui.

Saikoro

Those gruesome beasts all look very similar so you may have to confront a few of them before you find the one with my wakizashi.

Saikoro

Were you able to find my wakizashi?

Saikoro

While I might not be the bravest, I do have the rare gift of seeing through people. Right away, I knew you were a kind and trustworthy individual.

Saikoro

This ability has served me well in trading and has allowed me to establish many good relationships with the people around me─such as yourself! May our friendship last a lifetime!
